Today Is Okay
[Verse 1]
Well, we like to have some friends around
Do the twist to Ray Charles and James Brown
After lunch, I'll maybe take a nap
I like a nap before a scrap
[Verse 2]
Honey, pass me more of them peas
Mm, I do like these
And let me have some more of those
More steak and potatoes, yeah
[Verse 3]
In a little while I'm going downtown
Maybe take me one or two rounds
I'm gonna knock that man clean out
He's going down, no doubt
[Chorus]
Maybe I was born on a bad-luck day
Born under a bad sign
But today is okay, yeah
Today's just fine
[Verse 4]
Baby, you can read my mind
I'll be home just after nine
You're the best medicine I know
Tonight we're gonna let it all go
[Verse 5]
Put on that pretty, silk shirt
Put on that tight, black skirt
Put on those heels so black
We can party on when I get back
[Chorus]
Maybe I was born on a bad-luck day
Born under a bad sign
But today is okay, yeah
Today's just fine
Well, we like to have some friends around
Do the twist to Ray Charles and James Brown
After lunch, I'll maybe take a nap
I like a nap before a scrap
[Verse 2]
Honey, pass me more of them peas
Mm, I do like these
And let me have some more of those
More steak and potatoes, yeah
[Verse 3]
In a little while I'm going downtown
Maybe take me one or two rounds
I'm gonna knock that man clean out
He's going down, no doubt
[Chorus]
Maybe I was born on a bad-luck day
Born under a bad sign
But today is okay, yeah
Today's just fine
[Verse 4]

You're the best medicine I know
Tonight we're gonna let it all go
